New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made an attempt to get into the meme game that conservatives own.

But that plan backfired on her when she got roasted by conservative Fox news commentator Dan Bongino and others.

One way to solve climate change is stop over populating the U.S. we have enough people here but the Dems want open borders for illegal immigration. Increase in population is most certainly not a way to address climate change AOC and u already know that but still pushing TGND. https://t.co/zSVxEoSpPX
